I was shooting from the hip . I forget my age . I remember being at Tower and mentioning the new Robbie Robertson, album to one of younger guys there (a musically sharp kid), and he didn't know who he was, I mentioned he was the guitar player for The Band. "I hate to tell you... I don't know who The Band is".
I remember hearing the song by the Rolling Stones "Down the Road Apiece" as a teen, and finding out it was Chuck Berry song . Then later finding out Chuck's was an arrangement of Amos Milburn's great boogie piano version .
